I'm not sure how that's a good thing.
Because takes off any pressure in your choice. You go with whatever you love, because you love it. Is kind of... vocational. You don't really expect to find a work in your field, so you love History? Philosophy? Language? Go for it.
If you are lucky, you'll end working as a teacher. If not... well, whatever you can get.

Yes, I see why it is though. I hope you find something that fits both, your preferences and chances to get foundig.
And yes, life tends to do that, doesn't it? *sigh*
